The Sunday Post #18 – Christmas Crafts

ByLisa Jayne 


You’ll have probably notice on the blog this week I’ve mentioned Christmas quite a lot. I’ve been getting my Christmas presents organised, and I’m resisting the urge to beg my mum to put the tree up so I can put them underneath it yet. This year I’ve decided I want to try and be a bit more crafty with some of my Christmas presents, and I even thought about trying to make my own Christmas cards.




I’ve never really had much success at making my own cards before, and I don’t really have any papercraft bits, so when I found these card making kits from Hobbycraft I thought I had to give it a go. The kits make it look so easy, and come complete with everything you need to make your own Christmas cards. So the other evening I decided to have a glass of mulled wine and sit down and try my best not to mess up making some Christmas cards. Apart from nearly sticking my fingers together with glue, I managed to make my cards without any real problems! These were actually really fun to make, and now I want to make cards for every occasion.




So this year everyone I know will probably be getting a slightly wonky, handmade Christmas card! I’m feeling even more in the Christmas spirit now, and it’s not long until Christmas!

I’m now into the third month of my Slip Into Summer challenge with DW Fitness and Weird Fish, it’s scary how quickly this has gone! Now that we’re in month three everything’s stepped up a game.

Inamo Resturant Review

	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					



	

		
A few years ago I discovered Japanese food and since then I’ve been obsessed with it. I love visits to Yo! Sushi and Wagamama, but I’m always on the look out for a new place I’ve not visited before. When I was looking for somewhere new I came across Inamo, an oriental fusion restaurant based in Soho. I…

For the past couple of months I’ve been setting myself some monthly goals, and I’ve been doing quite well at sticking to them. As I’m getting on pretty well with them I thought I’d carry on and set myself a few for April. Lose 1 stoneI set myself this one last month as well, but…
